Looks like a big ole Nic,couple of Mot's there for sure
The kids look like they could use a soaking,look kinda dehydrated

Simple guess' on fuzzy pics . . . . .

they are about to shed for the first time, ill feed them hoppers afterward probably. I appretiate it, we were thinking they were motleys but were not to sure. The dad was a albino of some type, i believe coral, someone i met let her breed to him because i was told she was het albino, but she did not throw any. Any idea on the value, i need to sell most of them soon. Also can you tell if they are ca mots or not? Thanks guys.

It wouldnt be right to sell them as CA Mot's if you knew one of the parents was albino or even het albino.
Doing the right thing in this business is rare,plenty of honest folks in the hobby
Several just havent been caught yet

Just do whats right

Not sure what you mean by that? I want to sell them for what they are worth, i would hate to buy an expensive snake and then it turn out to be something of lesser value. So in your opinion, what would you sell them as?

unless one of the parents was a motley (and mom doesn't look it) then they aren't. they look like cute little normals to me with some circleback/laddertail pattern. It depends how you want to sell, the entire lot or each one by itself; boa prices are pretty low right now; wholesale could be anywhere from $15-30/ea or retail anywhere from $25-100/ea depending if you can find buyers. In my limited experience, most wholesalers won't give you much more for 'hets' then they do for normals. Sounds like you don't have a pic of the dad?
Good luck!

100%

Wholesale you may be able to sell them in 5 or 10 lots for $20-$30 each or you can try to sell them by the animal for anywhere from $50-$100, but I honestly think even $100 ea. is a stretch unless you have a buyer that's looking for what you've got. In my opinion on average if you expect around $50 ea. when all is said and done you won't be disapointed...

What were you thinking they were worth? You didn't think you had some high end / expensive morph did you?

Personally they wont bring "Farm" (wholesale)price
Last I heard farmed Nics were something like $14.-$16.USD
After they have had several good meals and are doing well

Then and only then,
I would try for $50 plus freight on the better pattern(Mot looking) ones

I also agree. Just plain BCI. BCI parents throw so many color and pattern anomalies its not even funny.

It's a bit repetitive, but there are no motleys in those pics, they're known as circle back laddertails and are Colombians. Even being het albino, it will probably be about $125 pr retail.
